Some men are immature indeed. All of us have the little boy in us that like to make dirty jokes but too many of us don't have the gift of discipline and appropriate timing. We objectify women far too much and that is what this poem is about.
i offered to cook you a
nice piece of steak
how on earth did you
miscontrew what i meant?
your mind is like a sewer
i don't dare speak
or move or breath
for fear of what you might think
This is the real crux of the poem and my heart hardens to think that I have ever made a woman feel this way (by the way, just for correction- misconstrew should actually be spelled 'misconstrue', sorry). I think if more men use tact and disciplined, women would not peg us as pigs.
This is very nice. I like when a poem makes me smile...and yeah, this person clearly has a dirty mind...I mean Top Gear, seriously. This is very well written and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, Like a sewer...um, like a peach...soft, tender skin, like a mellon, sweet and refreshing, like a glass of wine, fruit taste that lifts the spirit, like a steak...rich with boiling flavor...would you like an early evening...um...did I do something wrong...but you didn't ask me these question....
this poem has brought new words to a familiar tone...Thanks for the read...nice write
